Introduction

In this lesson, we're going to check out what makes mass and weight different, see how gravity works when you're up high in the sky or down deep in the ocean, and find out how G-forces can make pilots feel super heavy or even totally weightless!

You’ll understand how mass and gravity work together to create weight—and why that matters when flying. We'll explore the relationship between these forces and how they play a crucial role in the design of aircraft. By the end of this lesson, you'll have a clearer picture of how these concepts impact flight dynamics.
